Core i3 vs Ryzen 5 1600

Hey guys,

I'm planning to build a new PC, only for gaming. I'm thinking about a GPU between rx580 and gtx 1080. What CPU should fit better? I'm want to spend as little as possible. I'm from Brazil and dollar sky rocket here, so any dollar saved is welcome. Ooh, the price difference between the CPUs are 20$, the ryzen been the most expensive one. I have no idea mobo for which CPU should be the cheapest one. I've no plans for oc and would like to use the inbox cooler.

Thanks for the help and sorry if I made some mistake, it's my first post and I'm learning a lot here!

i would go for a ryzen 1600. if the 2600 is within like 25 dollars i would get that instead but any more and its value comes into question.

as for overclocking motherboards. a b350 or b450 would do just fine. keep in mind if you got the 2600 and a b350 you would need to make sure its bios is up to date to support the newer chip. at this point most are unless its been sitting on the shelf for over a year
